Answer:

  • 7%: $1065
  • 13%: $1365

Step-by-step explanation:

If x represents the amount invested at 7%, then the amount invested at 13% is x+300. Lydia's total interest is ...

  0.07x +0.13(x +300) = 252

  0.20x = 213 . . . . . subtract 39

  x = 213/0.20 = 1065

Lydia has $1065 invested at 7% and $1365 invested at 13%.
